Application

O-(2-Aminoethyl)-O′-(2-azidoethyl)pentaethylene glycol can be used:
  • As a reactant for the synthesis of thin films of azide functionalized poly(L-glutamic acid) for drug delivery.
  • For the synthesis of curcumin monoazide derivatives for fabricating biologically active curcumin conjugates.
  • To modify the surface of TiO2 nanoparticles to attach DNA strands for photocatalytic reduction of CO2.
  • For the conjugation of poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) with toll-like receptor 7 (TLR7) to improve its pharmaceutical properties.

O-(2-Aminoethyl)-O′-(2-azidoethyl)pentaethylene glycol has been used in the synthesis of Alexa568-azide, a fluorescent azide that can undergo click staining reaction with 5-ethynyluridine-labeled cellular RNA.
